Get it Ready For Winter

[VWD]

As J.R. says, I've never had a car with central locking. But hot water on windows does create problems on older locks. So I use WD40

Earlier in year to stop problems ( bit like Lee tieing lader to pole , before he went up it, rather than whinging after coming off).

Lee- almost been there and got the T shirt. One day I put ladder up, and tied it , but didn't see dog poo under bottom of one leg. Got off pole, to ladder ,with belt on and ladder went squiffy. Sort of saved by belt as I still had one leg on step. BTW- you should never criticise the old leather belt with MK1 tetra, as done properly it was fall prevention before you fell.

BUT it does pay not to throw out those front car mats. I keep the old ones in boot, for when I get a bit of snow. Older blokes ( and BMW drivers, take head, BMW folks need string to tie to bumper ). As BMW drivers do not rate highly on my list of brain bots, I'll explain. Tie string to old mat, then tie to a bit of car. place in front of rear wheels, and drive of. Once you get somewhere, you can stop and drive off, retrieve mats and put in boot.
